3 AWESOME ladies!
2 brand new level 2 atrium spaces!
1 fantastic week!
This is not even *all* the material making done by these 3 awesome ladies during our recent level 2 formation course. We covered all of the Kingdom of God presentations, all of Moral Formation, all of Incarnation which includes the level 2 prophecies, level 2 geography, and level 2 Infancy Narratives), and all of Paschal Mysteries.
Whew.
Given these ladies worked through the several evenings as well, this is still a phenomenal feat to have most of the new materials done for these presentations already!
They even did more after this - decoupaging their maxims tablets and Greatest Commandment tablets, drilling one last hole in a pin map, additional layers of polyurethane, probably some more nail filing too!
